The automatic parking apparatus is configured to provide a solution to the car-parking problems on a global scale. The underground of city streets, highways, airport runways, recreation parks and the like, is excavated to provide conveniently located parking space, at low cost "the virtual conquering of space". A car parking credit card provides data about the drivers' identity, and also the vehicles' particulars to configure a linear robot having tow complementary shuttles operating in symbiosis. Contemporary handheld communicators provide access to parking availability via satellite and the Internet, of number of parks, specific vehicle parking costs and alternative location maps. A street-side car parking credit card booth and a front video camera on a gate, provide the particular data required, once a parking request is entered and approved. Otherwise the gate remains closed and the driver is instructed to exit into the street traffic. After having been approved for parking the vehicle is driven into an indexed position where the driver shuts the ignition off and exits with the other occupants. Robot linear shuttle A comes over, inspects the vehicle, lifts it by the tires and places the vehicle on shuttle B at ground level which grips the tires firmly in position then proceeds at fast speed towards a computer allocated parking booth, after shuttle A returns to its original standby position. Shuttle B has the ability to move along the X, Y, Z axis engaged by a single encoded electric servomotor to linear gear steel tracks and to index with multi level vehicle parking booths on a modular metallic frame, according to computer program allocation for parking and retrieval of the vehicles and to issue a parking receipt to the driver with the particulars. On request for retrieving a vehicle by the drivers' credit card and password, shuttle B indexes with the particular vehicles' booth once again retrieves the vehicle, clamps the tires firmly in position and proceeds at fast speed to the surface indexed position. -22- Once again shuttle A comes over retrieves the vehicle and now places it over a car-out indexed position then returns to its standby position. Now the driver opens the door, turns the ignition key-on and drives away. Accordingly, the embodiments of the present invention provide a simple solution to the present and future parking problems, a legacy to society and prosperity worldwide. -23-
